Each summer, a small group of students from Marquette University’s College of Education travel to Peru to engage in a comparative study of the diverse contexts of education. For some students, it’s their first trip out of the country; for others, it’s their first trip beyond the European study abroad circuit. For all of them, it’s an eye-opening, perspective-changing experience. And I’m proud and delighted that I get to travel with them and be a part of their transformation as teachers, citizens, and humans. In these pages, you can read their reflections—often raw and un-edited—on our experiences; you can read some of my perspective as the program designer; and you can also get an overview of the program itself.
